Bab 226: Igneous Fist

Lucius watched Arius for about ten minutes, in which he stayed in the same paralyzed state. 

"Is he fine?" Kiana asked in a low voice.

"Yeah, he should be fine. Even if he's not moving, his breathing is the same." Lucius replied.

Kiana looked closer and saw that the man's chest was still moving.

"Hmm… seems like it…" Kiana muttered before looking at Lucius.

"Was I the same when you upgraded my gift?" Kiana questioned.

"Not exactly. You fainted back then, and the rest of the process happened automatically thus I couldn't really tell much. But now seeing this, I can tell that it was much different than this. You had a slightly harsher process." Lucius answered.

"Why do you think that happened?" Kiana asked curiously.

"Hmm… it's hard to tell. The only other sample I had before this was Neta but his gift was only common ranked thus I thought the higher the ranked gift the more difficult the process.
